About

Aggressive mix of leveraged stock and bond funds: ~33% 3x S&P 500, ~33% 3x long Treasuries, plus income and ballast from preferreds and intermediate Treasuries. Aims for a high‑octane 50/50 stock‑bond core, with very high risk and volatility.
NutHow it works
Targets: 33% UPRO (3x S&P 500—big U.S. companies), 33% TMF (3x 20+yr U.S. Treasuries), 17% PFF (preferred shares for income), 17% VGIT (intermediate Treasuries). The two 3x funds aim to give ~100% stocks and ~100% long‑bonds (“50/50” core). PFF adds income; VGIT adds ballast. No planned rebalancing. Expect very large swings; losses can be swift if stocks and long‑bonds fall together.
CheckmarkValue prop
Levered 50/50 core with income ballast (UPRO/TMF + PFF/VGIT): out-of-sample ~22.9%/yr, Calmar 1.39. A diversified, risk-adjusted growth engine that complements the S&P 500, especially in mixed-rate regimes.

FAQ

A Composer symphony is an automated trading strategy that executes trades based on parameters of your choice. Some symphonies are similar to holding one ETF in normal conditions and rotating to a different ETF when market conditions shift, for example a 5% drop in the S&P 500, while others use complex rules with dozens of triggers. However, complex doesn’t always mean better. A simple, well-structured symphony can be just as effective as an intricate one. Learn more about how symphonies work here.
